pfizer one

Last Friday, around lunchtime, the boss called to inform me that there were plenty of covid vaccine slots available at Walgreens if I was interested. I said okay, I'd check it out. Less than half an hour later, she called again. Had I seen the email? (No. The email was sent like 10 minutes ago.) The email said a special vaccine clinic for employees was opening on Monday.

Looks like she wants me back in the office, huh?

I got a slot for Wednesday. So, downtown excursion hype. Also hype for fixing my jank sleep schedule just enough to catch the 9:45 am train. My natural tendency is to push my bedtime gradually later over time, and Wolvden admittedly has not helped. Rollover was previously at 1 am, but they don't do daylight savings, so now it's at 2 am. Wednesday was my first time not staying up for rollover. I was a little sad to miss it, since I had 11 pups due (3 pups from a mojave x fox breeding, and 8 prospective egg gladiators). But it was fine. I didn't get any t3s, but I did get a cocoa runt of the litter. My first runt!

The day was bright and breezy and cold. A flock of fat pigeons outside the train station were having toast for breakfast. I went to Kinko's to print and fill out my vaccination form, and then I had half an hour to walk around town before my appointment. Exciting times.

I lowkey expected the centre to be doing business as usual (which in retrospect makes no sense, but it's always a happy bustling place in my head). Instead, most of the ground floor was cordoned off, and the food court was closed. The DMV was also closed. Guess it's a good thing I never came to try and renew my ID. I was nervous about my expired ID, and I brought my passport just in case, but they didn't check either.

The clinic was well-run, basically like the normal flu shot clinics with more distancing, and I got out just in time to catch the 12:30 train. Reached home with just over 13K steps, not bad at all. Felt pretty much normal afterwards, except maybe more tired than usual? It's 10:30 pm and I feel about ready to conk out. Guess I'm not staying up for rollover tonight either.
